Pegging Shopping Guide

Pegging -- also known as "Bend Over Boyfriend play" -- happens when a woman gives anal pleasure to a man via a strap-on dildo. (Fun fact: This was the winning term in 2001 when Dan Savage announced a contest to name F/M strap-on sex in his sex advice column Savage Love!)

Common myths about this popular kink include the notion that this means a guy is gay, or will make him that way (fact: Sexual orientation has to do with the gender of the person you want to have sex with, not what kind of stimulation your nerve endings like) and that only dominant women and submissive men do it (fact: Pegging isn't just part of the BDSM world -- for many, it's simply another way to explore erotic sensation and sexual pleasure, involving no power play or roleplay). Here's a product guide to help you choose toys, lube, and inspiration for your first -- or your next -- pegging adventure!
